Fireball XL5 (1962–1963)
Catchy theme tune
11 April 2002
I'm not really old enough to remember this show properly, although there are elements in it which kind of strike a chord. Most probably it's the TALKING about it that I remember in the school playground when aged around 5. All the later Anderson shows were repeated in very early 70's, have watched them all. (From Stingray upwards.)

Anyway, it's been a kind of distant, foggy memory until last week. Friend loaned me a tape, watched it 3 times over. Not convinced it's a work of art, but it has that kind of really watchable quality that you just can't take off Mr. Anderson.

Anyway I liked it, and then went off to spend the next few days singing that annoyingly catchy theme song.
